Are there exceptions to the ticketed passengers only rule?
The airlines have been making exceptions to this rule for people with special needs such as unaccompanied minors, the elderly, and physically challenged individuals. Contact the airline you are flying to find out the exact procedure on how you can get through security. Usually, an airline reservations agent can help you make the arrangements. Additionally, Denver International Airport contracts with the Travelers Assistance Program (TAP). TAP is available to assist our guests with any special needs and challenges that they may have, including wheelchairs. Please contact the staff and volunteers of TAP in advance at (303) 342-0400 to make arrangements.
